HAZARDOUS WASTE DISPOSAL
PHONE: 330-672-1950
WEBSITE: /compliance/chemical-waste-disposal
If not handled properly, the disposal of chemical waste can be a serious and costly problem. State and federal 鈥渃radle-to-grave鈥 regulations make it illegal to dispose of chemical wastes in any manner except through proper treatment and/or by a licensed company. One major problem with proper disposal of chemicals is the lack of identification. Containers must be labeled or marked so that their contents are known. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) must be kept with the chemical from the time it is received until that chemical is picked up for disposal. When chemicals are no longer needed or cannot be used, contact the Environmental Health and Safety Office at 330-672-1950 for details on the proper methods of collection and/or disposal.
